The Drew University Economics department seeks to instill in its students a holistic understanding of the economy and the discipline of economics. Our students learn to think critically, analytically, and empirically about the economy, its challenges, and its connections to the rest of society.

Economics
The Drew Economics Department has established three broad objectives for its economics curriculum. It teaches students analytical tools for understanding the functioning of economic systems, familiarizes them with the origin, character, and operation of economic institutions, and enables them to make informed judgments about economic policy.
